Lmao Domi wearing 13 (still Cammy for me) and fucking Alzner besmirching Mahavolich/Kovalev/AGallys #27.

Ugh.

I cannot believe (well obviously I can, but i cant, y'know?) that they are going to try to convert another small ass smurf winger to a centre. Meanwhile we just sent Arizona their like 6th centre on their roster.

I notice Drouin is officially listed as a C on the Habs site too (was listed as LW all last season). Le sigh.

Checked Arizonas site too. AGally was listed as #27 yesterday but now has no number. Perhaps a sign hes changing things up?

Hes also listed as a C.

*cries*

Dahlin would have a chance at busting in our trash player development system.

Holy shit Pens offered one of Rust or Sheary and Simon for Domi.

Bergevin got fleeced.

Bargainbin aging at an-Obama-as-President rate but without term limits. He'll be a skeleton in 4 years.

If Bergevin and Chiarelli ever combined to make a serious trade, it would blow a hole in the space-time continuum.

Watch us take Tkchuk with Zadina on board.








Fuck it, I am gonna start watching more Zadina highlights!!!! Because what's the point of this if you aren't getting your hopes up and waiting for it to get destroyed by the ineptitude of your management.

Not only am I ready for this, I'm expecting it

Is it just me or have the centres in this draft really surged the past 6 weeks? For over a year the 2018 draft has been known as a D-man and winger heavy draft with no potential 1Cs available. Now suddenly Kotkaniemi and Hayton have both made huge jumps and could very well both go in the Top 10. Even Joe Busteleno may go higher than projected.

What happened?

Recent Cup winner bias? Caps won with two elite centres. Pens as well.

According to Wikipedia, #27 is retired for the OG Jets/Coyotes (Teppo Numminen).

So new number confirmed for AGally. Back to #94?

Is "creative proposals" code for blatant cap circumvention?

Well, there is potential for a large one year contract (talking 1 year 16 million, and then an 8 year extension in january)

But... Maybe? Sports endorsements are tricky things and Toronto has money flowing through it.

It's one angle where an endorsement can give more money than a contract and endorsements are not bound through the SPC unless it's the team dictating terms. But a company can say we won't endorse you unless you sign for a team. That's where it gets muddy as they are guiding a process but as far as I know it is legal as it's 2 separate things.

Damn, I didnt realize Trotz was the 5th winningest coach in NHL history. How come hes getting paid peanuts when an overrated chump like Babcock, who actually hasn't done anything outside of coaching a stacked Wings team to a Cup and Super Saiyan Team Canadas that I could have coached to a gold medal, is getting rich?

Damn, that's a bit of a shock about Trotz resigning. But if he thinks he can fetch more cash, might as well give it a shot.

From 'quake area to big OH.
I thought Trotz may step down just to go out on top. Understandably he would want more money with his accomplishment and wins.

I hate seeing teams get dismantled over money though. Get paid, or get trophies?

Why not both?

Ya'll ask for pond hockey?



I swear to god if they put this in the game and tout it as a big feature instead of, you know, making the game better I'm gonna be pissed. The EA NHL series fucking loves it's stupid gimmicks because there is no budget from EA to really dig into it and change the game.

Seems like they shit out a hockey game due to obligation and don't care.
